    30 tooth single ring set up
    12/36 cassette
    sram x9 rear mech

    i like the single ring set up, but need a lower gear.

    how do i do it?

    40t expander cog on the back. Though does depend on which cassette you have. $2t also available.

    From experience the X9 copes with a 40t fine.

    cassette is a pg1030 sram.

    do i split it, take a cog out and add the 40.

    Or Absoluteblack 40T & lock ring. You sure it’s not 11-36 cassette?

    Edit

    Fits Shimano – not sure if there’s a Sram version

    Like the look of that… Reckon losing the 11 would work well

    Think you have to keep the 11 tooth and ditch one of the others, does the locking not bite down on the smallest cog?

    Jim… I thought too

    Have a read at the absolute black link… You have the option to buy a special lockring

    Is this for the bike that you’re going to run completely stock or another one? 😆

    You can get a bigger lock ring that fits on the 13t and then slot in an expander of your choice
